Dataset-specific description

A custom pump system was used to sample basement fluid. It connected to the CORK observatorys' fluid delivery lines.  The design of this system changed over the course of the study.  It included the pump components Pelagic Electronics 5010 series deep sea pump, and Sea-Bird SBE-5T submersible titanium pump.  For a detailed description see:
